Expanding to the USA – is now the right time? Gary Leskun | Cross Border Partners #014

Almost every business with international ambitions wants to expand to the United States. It’s easy to understand why. It’s the biggest economy and market on earth. It’s English-speaking, it’s got great people, great communications and since its founding has always been considered as the Land of Opportunity.

But how easy is it? And, with all we hear about the backlash against globalisation epitomised by the “America First” policy, the tariffs and the fear of trade wars, is now the right time for foreign companies to really be considering expanding there?

In this podcast, Oliver Dowson talks with Gary Leskun, the President and COO of Cross Border Advisory Services, about these issues, and how companies can best expand to and from the USA.

Gary has impressive qualifications and a vast range of international business experience. He and his team have helped many companies to identify export markets and recommend market entry strategies for products and services to get the best return on international investments.
